" Let every freeman strive to bring The universal jubilee ; All hail the day when earth shall ring With shouts of joy, and men are free ! Then each glad voice Shall loud rejoice, And chains shall fall from every hand. Whilst myriad tongues shall loudly tell The grateful joy of hearts that swell. Where Freedom reigns o'er sea and land. THE WIDOW'S STORY. Tapville was situated on the borders of one of the most beautiful rivers that grace and refresh the soil of New Eng- land. It was once a quiet ...place, once as perfect in its char- acter as any of its sisterhood. A moral atmosphere pervaded it, and the glorious and divine principle of doing unto others as thej would have others do unto them governed its inhab- itants ; and, therefore, it was not strange that its farmers and storekeepers kept good the proverbial honesty and hos- pitality of their progenitors. Tradition said (but written history was silent) that a few of those who landed at Plym- outh Rock separated from the main body, and took up their abode further in the interior; and that, from these " few," a flourishing company arose, and the place they in- habited was " Springvale." But time and circumstances, having much to do with the concerns of earth's inhabitants, changed the character as well as the name of this ancient town, and " Springvale " became " Tapville." One evening, in the year one thousand eight hundred and I don't remember what, after a somewhat fatiguing ride on horseback all day, my heart was cheered on coming in view of the town.
